Health has con¬ tinued to shed its blessings over our State, and individual happinesa, and general prosperity have accompanied it The laws have been duly administered—our public works have progressed successfiilly— Ihe public credit remains firm and unshaken—and the revenue is.in a prosperous condition. For these manifold blessings, we cannot be too thankful, nor too faithful in the discharge of every duty, to llie Great Giver of all good; and while we bow before him, in humble adoration and ur>feigned gratitude, we should no( be unoiindful tbat we have re¬ ceived those ble.ssings, not on account of any worth in ourselves, but from the rich fountains of His mercy lowards us.
Among the first and most important duties you will be called on to discharge, at the present session, will be the election of a representa¬ tive for the State in the Senate of the Union, to supply the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of the Hon William H. Harrison. I sug¬ gest the propriety of supplying this vacancy as early as will be consis¬ tent with the satisfactory discharge of so important a public duty.
By an act of Congress, pa.ssed the 24th of May, 1823, there is grant¬ ed to (he State of Ohio, a quantity of land, equal to the one half of f\yt sections in width, on each side of a Canal between Dayton and the
